Dental Implants/Bridges
With modern dentistry, we can replace missing teeth without the need for dentures using dental implants or crowns and bridges to fill the gap with a permanent tooth replacement.
Dental Bridges and Implants for Missing or Broken Teeth
Whether you have missing teeth at the front of your smile or at the back for chewing, dental implants are an excellent solution to restore both form and function. With today’s advanced dentistry, there are very few cases where we can’t replace a tooth. The beauty of dental implants is that they replace the missing tooth as though it were never gone, looking and functioning just like a natural tooth.
In some cases, when the teeth on either side of the gap need extra support with crowns, we can attach the replacement tooth to those crowns, creating a permanent dental bridge. This approach fills the gap, restores strength to the surrounding teeth, and completes your smile in as little as two visits.
You will always function better with all of your own teeth
Living with missing teeth affects how you chew, speak, and smile. Thankfully, most gaps can be restored quickly, often in as little as one or two visits. Depending on your needs, we may recommend a dental bridge or a dental implant.
A dental bridge involves placing crowns on the teeth beside the gap, then attaching a replacement tooth between them to “bridge” the space. This option is ideal when neighbouring teeth are badly broken down and need crowns for support anyway. If the surrounding teeth are healthy, a dental implant is usually preferred. Both approaches deliver predictable, natural-looking results without the need for dentures.
With modern dental solutions, bridges and implants can replace a missing tooth so seamlessly it feels and functions just like the real thing.
Replacing the missing teeth can be part of the solution
When missing teeth or severely broken teeth disrupt your bite, they can put stress on your jaw joints and force facial muscles to overcompensate. This imbalance often leads to pain, discomfort, or further damage to surrounding teeth. Replacing the missing teeth with dental bridges or dental implants restores harmony to your bite, relieving pressure and improving comfort.
In many cases, implants or bridges also play a vital role in aesthetic reconstruction, helping to rebuild both form and function for long-term oral health.
Turning a Setback Into a Smile Win
Actual Patient
This patient came to us worried about a large gap in her smile and a single tooth that was badly infected and starting to loosen. It had reached a point where the tooth couldn’t be saved and needed to be removed.
While that kind of news is never easy to hear, we were able to take advantage of the situation, planning a treatment that not only replaced the missing tooth but also closed the gap that had been bothering her for years.
The result was more than just a fix. It was a small transformation that made a big difference, both to her confidence and the overall harmony of her smile.
